and guests Jeremy Dutcher, Creeasian, respectfulchild
After being invited to present a TED Talk in Vancouver last April, A Tribe Called Red decided to completely rework their live show for a series of unique concerts: a multi-media show capturing both their energy and message, but built for a seated audience. Special guests Jeremy Dutcher, respectfulchild, and Creeasian join in to help bring the ideas and ideals of the Halluci Nation to life.
ATCR have performed at some of the world’s most celebrated festivals including Coachella, Bonnaroo, AfroPunk, Osheaga, and New Orleans Jazz Fest. Their latest album, We Are The Halluci Nation, was released to critical-acclaim and earned them Group of the Year at the 2016 JUNO Awards.
